@ManatuBear Microsoft builds things the way it knows best: like software. Someone has set a list of features/functionality and a date to get it done. Some of that stuff gets cut as they get further into development and some of it gets added back in if they get ahead of their schedule. I doubt someone said last week "Hey let's put in more megarams!". For better or worse this is how things happen. Reply+1

It seems that steam doesn't even want to rip me off. The article link or links to the pack within the steam store just redirect me to the front page of the store. Anyone ever encountered this before? Reply0

If it's done in a similar way to the film councils scoring system British developers could make a "culturally British" game while still having mass appeal. Points there are awarded not only on content (although half of them are) being British, but also for it being produced in Britain with British resources. Reply0

Maybe it's time for the industry to mature and be more open with their customers. If you know you have a good product get it out their and keep your customers happy and interested and maybe even contribute in making it better. I like what Introversion are doing with Darwinia+ for example. This way there is no need to put all that wasted energy into keeping secrets. Reply+1

Cool. Are you planning on having users recent comments in their profile linking directly to the comment now that they have those fancy number/anchor things? I've always found it annoying that those links went to the start of the comments/thread the post appears in. Reply+1
